Death's Sweet Kiss

by Freyja

After freeing the Metropolitis form her charm she has commissioned the party to go down into the depths of the crypts beneath the Grand Sanctuary and end the threat that ensnared her. Something she referred to as " The Watcher". In my studies at the monastery and even as a nobleman's child every tale or historical account of someone taking on a moniker of any kind never ends well. On the very first floor we came into contact with a Death-Kiss, something from the nightmare of a Beholder as I recall, it sucked my life-blood as I fought it and every time I landed a blow I got shocked as well, no matter I can take a little zap from a beast. But I fell unconscious and when I awoke I was pissed off, to put it mildly and I was done Pussy-footing and we ended up killing the beast. Finding this on the first level of our descent into the crypts is not a good omen but I know there is at least one more Beholder, The Watcher, down here. I will play my part as a part of the group but I really fucking hate Beholders and Beholderkin and one thing I know for certain is the rest of this dungeon delve is gonna suck, and not in a good way...
